| Teaching Latin Dance Steps in the Dance and Physical Education Program |
| Latin dance has become extremely popular in almost every section of this country. However, many physical educators & dance educators have not had the opportunity to experience various teaching methods necessary to integrate such dances into their programs. This session is designed to take participants through the very basic steps & onward to more impressive group dances using Latin steps and stirring music. We guarantee that participants will develop skills that will allow them to teach at least some of the dances when they return to their schools following the conference. |
